Overview

An essential Wi-Fi 7 upgrade for your broadband home

The C36 BE3600 Wi-Fi 7 Router delivers faster, more stable Wi-Fi for everyday homes, simply and affordably.

With speeds up to 3.6 Gbps¹, it ensures smoother streaming, quicker downloads, and reliable coverage, without a complicated setup.

Faster, Smoother, and More Reliable with MLO

The C36 features Multi-Link Operation (MLO) technology, which boosts speed, improves reliability, and reduces latency by transmitting data across multiple bands simultaneously. MLO Mesh applies this technology to Mesh networks, strengthening the connection between the main router and its extenders for consistently reliable whole-home coverage.
